FWIT, if you are in the free mode and don't want to see all the ads in
Eudora (assuming your mail folder is on an NTFS partition) you can DENY
read rights to your user account on the \%YourMailFolder%\EudPriv\Ads
directory- You still see the gray square, but not the ads. Now that I
think about it, it may be the AdCache dir under Ads- I can't remember right
now, and can't test since I paid for my copy using Eric's credit card
number that I horked from him while he was picking up women at Blackhat.

Also, if you have access to someone's eudora.ini file (locally or remotely)
and want to have fun with them, you can add the following lines:
[Debug]
LogLevel=127

When they start Eudora, all email transactions in and out will be verbosely
logged to a eudora.log file (no notice anywhere that it is happening) in
their email folder. This way you can get their username, password, email
data, etc in one simple file. Even if they use SMTPS and POP3S, the
resultant cleartext data (even uname and password) is still written to the
file. Fun stuff.
